You have to agree, being able to edit commit messages in a controlled
(logged/versioned) fashion is pretty useful. Aside mundane corrections such as typos or undocumented changes, it makes it possible to document bugs and other unintended changes in the commit that they were introduced. This is possible in centralized VCSes and is implemented in Subversion (controlled
by a server-side hook).

It sounds like you want to read about a new feature called git-notes:

Have fun,

Wow, thanks! Looks like I'm behind the times. (Currently stuck with msysGit/1.6.5)

The documentation looks pretty scant. Does anyone know how close were my suggestions to the actual implemented behavior (esp. regarding rebasing)?
